Terrot Management A successful business is always affected by people who run a company with know-how, commitment, courage and creativity. As the new owners Mr. Peter Schüring and Mr. Andreas von Bismarck run the company Terrot since the 1st June 2006. In April 2014 the board of management was joined by Mr. Thomas Mutschler. Peter Schüring, Managing Director The career of Peter Schüring covers 28 years of a professional activity at the Citigroup, N.Y. In this group Mr. Schüring was in charge of the International Business. Most important in that time have been the positions as Division Executive with the management of whole country groups in Latin-America; as Executive Vice President with the overall direction of the Investment-Banking sector in Asia and afterwards in Europe and the Middle East. From 1980 till 1990 Mr. Schüring was a member of the senior management at the Citigroup. In 1990 he took the chair of the Deutsche Handelsbank AG, Berlin. In 1996 he founded together with Dr. Hermann Andreas the partnership Schüring & Andreas with the intention to acquire companies and re-establish them. During this time 12 enterprises have been acquired and restructured. Terrot is one of these companies. Mr. Schüring is also a member of the supervisory board of various companies and even a board member and the treasurer of the “Freunde der preußischen Schlösser und Gärten e.V.”. Andreas von Bismarck, Managing Director After his career at the 2nd Military Infantry Bataillon in Berchtesgaden Mr. Andreas von Bismarck studied business administration and law at the Georg-August-University in Göttingen and at the Humboldt University in Berlin. Mr. von Bismarck gained his first experience in a medium-sized lawyer’s office and has cooperated as an assistant of Prof. Dr. Thomas Stapperfend in the publishing of a leading commentary. During his studies he already gained wide practical experiences to expand his economic knowledge and used this know-how after his academic career for his entry into the professional life especially in the companies of the group “Schüring and Andreas”. His engagement at Terrot confirms the seriousness and the long-term basis of the equity holding and secures the succession of the company. Mr. von Bismarck gets also involved with the non-profit sector as honorary Managing Director of the “Kira Auguste Princess of Prussia foundation for music and culture”. Mr. von Bismarck is married and has two daughters.

  • L'épopée Fantastique
    L’épopée fantastique 1820-1920, cycles et motos 8 avril - 25 juillet 2016 Musée national de la Voiture du Palais de Compiègne www.musees-palaisdecompiegne.fr Suriray, Vélocipède de course, 1869. ©RMNGP/Tony Querrec La collection de cycles du musée national de la Voiture compte, pour les années 1818-1920, parmi les plus remarquables d’Europe. Une importante acquisition réalisée en 2015 a permis de notablement l’enrichir et se trouve présentée au public à cette occasion. L’exposition L’Epopée fantastique est organisée autour de différentes thématiques comme les innovations techniques, la recherche de vitesse, les loisirs, les courses, les clubs et la pratique cycliste, ainsi que les impacts sociaux liés au développement des deux-roues entre 1820 et 1920. Des emprunts à d’autres musées français comme le musée Auto Moto de Chatellerault et le musée d’Art et d’Industrie de Saint Etienne, ainsi qu’à des collections privées viennent compléter cette première sélection. C’est à l’occasion du 125e anniversaire de la course Paris-Roubaix, dont le départ a lieu à Compiègne depuis presque quarante ans, que l’exposition sera ouverte au public. On pourra y découvrir les origines du cycle et de la moto et l’extraordinaire émulation qui animait les fabricants, les coureurs, les cyclistes et motards de ces années d’expérimentations et d’exploration qui sont synonymes de nouvelles sensations. L’exposition s’articule autour de quatre axes principaux : 1. Les années 1820-1860 : de la draisienne au vélocipède. Né de la draisienne, inventée par le baron allemand Karl Drais, le vélocipède est issu de la mise en place d’un pédalier sur la roue avant, innovation attribuée au français Pierre Michaux en 1861.

    CONVERTING ABANDONED RAILWAYS TO ACTIVE TRANSPORTATION ROUTES: CREATING A FRAMEWORK FOR THE CITY OF WINNIPEG, MANITOBA Submitted by Michael R. Erlanger A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate Studies of The University of Manitoba In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF CITY PLANNING Department of City Planning University of Manitoba Winnipeg, Manitoba Copyright © 2019 by Michael R. Erlanger Page i ABSTRACT The proposed research explored the conversion of existing abandoned railway corridors to Active Transportation (AT) routes. This project was inspired by the work of the “Rails to Trails” movement in North America (Ackelson, 1996). A maximum of three precedents (two international and one domestic) were studied. Each of the example projects were in cities that have characteristics similar to Winnipeg, Manitoba. These characteristics included size, climate, density, growth and topography. The research aimed to help create a potential framework for the cycling and pedestrian community in Winnipeg. This framework led to improved transportation solutions throughout the city, thus enabling citizens to experience the efficiency, health benefits, and added economic benefits, as well as a greater sense of neighbourhood appreciation – all while using the renewable resource of the abandoned railway. The majority of the research proposed for this project was drawn from precedents beyond Manitoba. However, the information gathered provided lessons learned for the conversion of abandoned railway corridors to AT routes in Winnipeg itself. Winnipeg could benefit greatly from understanding how other cities have capitalized on these under-utilized resources and taken advantage of existing transportation networks. The precedent research focused on cyclists and pedestrians, who were commuting to and from work, as well as recreational users.

  • (They Know Who They Are). on Your Own You Can Do Nothing, the Future Will Prove It
    My thanks to those who have taught me, have shared their secrets, have helped me and have trusted me (they know who they are). On your own you can do nothing, the future will prove it. (There are probably some anachronisms or inaccuracies in the chronological order, certain facts are sometimes old, but even not in the right order the story stays the realty.) PGO Special thanks to Dominique and Jean-Paul for re-reading the original article and the update of memories, also to James for translation . The car in 1973 in the parking lot of my house 1 60 years of passion, Mechanics, and how to go from a Citroen C4 to a TRIUMPH TR5 PI with a big M for Mechanics THE PRESAGES. I used to see my Grandfather conscientiously turning the starter handle on his Citroen C4 to free up the engine before starting it, after having checked all the fluid levels. My active participation in this activity was to pass him the rags. Different times would you say ? (well yes, the C4 not that of today, that of 1932 with the thermometer on the radiator and a 'floating' engine) Appreciate the only two graduations of thermometer: Summer temperature and Winter temperature. Some years later, wandering around the mechanics who succeeded one another under the bonnet of his Renault 4CV, which lacked power (what a euphemism) and having thought about it for a long time (!) I decided to get involved. « You need to look at the air filter » Everybody burst out laughing, teasing sniggers by the mechanics.

A great opportunity for both the curious and engine enthusiasts to throwback within the outstanding history of the motorcycle trough a beautiful retrospective. THE MOTORCYCLE : A FRENCH PASSION Motorcycles were invented in France and the machines we built dominated the world right at the start of the 20th century. The very first steam- powered velocipedes to be sold were built and patented in 1871 by Louis Guillaume Perreaux. Then very soon after, motorcycles were all the rage. In 1898, the Werner Brothers were credited with the first use of the word Perreaux motorcycle of 1871 «Motocyclette” – the name they used for their first model. © Collection musée du Domaine Terrot, Peugeot or Gnome & Rhône départemental de Sceaux - photo From major manufacturers such as Olivier Ravoire to France’s early craftsman, nearly 1000 brands have seen the light of day; Rétromobile will be bringing together some of the finest truly French inventions at this year’s show.
